Who Should Attend?

District and site Schoolmaster System Managers, Classroom Manager, and other key operators should plan on attending one of our continuing education training events. The User Conference events feature multiple concurrent lecture presentations in addition to hands-on computer lab training.

Expert Schoolmaster Trainers and Tyler Technologies staff will provide training on the use of the latest versions of Schoolmaster District Edition (and School Edition) and Network Edition, including the Schoolmaster Gradebook application and the new Web Classroom. In addition to the staff of Schoolmaster trainers, representatives from our Technical Support, Development, and Management Teams will be in attendance.

The training curriculum for these events is designed for key operators who have completed basic Schoolmaster Training relative to their job function. "New users" should not attend unless they have received this basic training.

For complete information on the range of topics/sessions, please review the proposed daily scheduled for each event; sessions vary depending on location.

Answers to Frequently Asked Questions

Pre-registering does not obligate you to attend the training event, it just temporarily reserves your seat. Finalization of your registration requires that you fax a purchase order to Schoolmaster Student Information Systems. (Early Bird discount registrations must submit a PO by the specified date on our Web site.)

Most topics are presented only once during the two days. If your school needs full coverage of all available topics, multiple attendees should register. For group rates (5 or more) from a school/district, please e-mail info.sm@tylertech.com for information on group registration fees.

At most events, Day One check-in begins at 6:45 AM, the general sessions begin at 7:45 AM and all break-out sessions end at 4:00 PM. Day Two sessions begin at 8:30 AM and end at 4:00 PM.

We do not guarantee computer availability for hands-on sessions. Seating is first come, first served.

Comments from Past Attendees

"I found the trainers to be very well-versed and informative. I have been to 3 training events since we started using Schoolmaster, and I always picked up something new at each one."

"I felt the presenters did an excellent job of teaching at all different levels. They had people from all backgrounds -- individuals with many years under their belt and others who had just a minimum amount of experience and yet they adequately met the needs of all."

"It was a very good event! The food and snacks were excellent and the accommodations were wonderful. I enjoyed the whole experience even though I have only been on Schoolmaster two months. Great program!"

"I was pleasantly surprised to see programmers and support people in the topic presentations. [User conference event] They didn't "teach" the materials, but they were there to field questions from presenters and attendees alike. That's not a small feature. It's huge. It shows that your company places the end-user first and that you (as a company) are there to provide the very best in support and training."
